I would not suggest this graphic to anyone who hasn't watched the TV series first. Boy, that would probably be confusing. Tales of Carnival Row is a great follow up to the first season for the TV series, and probably the second season as it will be the last. Tales is a series of stories about the main characters, expanding on their histories and lives in the Burgue. I really enjoyed the little vignettes and was so excited to learn more about characters I'd fallen in love with. While the art style was not my favorite, it was still well done and the color work was lovely. I found the lettering a bit hard to read, but that was likely due to my digital ARC than the actual novel. I look forward to seeing this in print forma and giving it another eager read. Great job on the graphic, and I hope there might be more in the future.

I am a fan of the tv show Carnival Row and really enjoyed this graphic adaptation. The artwork is fantastic as well. I would love to see more stories published in this world.

This graphic expansion on the world in Carnival Row is absolutely beautiful and a fantastic teaser while waiting for the next season! The stories are engaging and the art is just spot on and ties in so well with the series. Fantastic read!

Thanks so much NetGalley and Legendary Comics for this beautiful arc!

Beautifully drawn w/ 3 new stories about some of your favorite characters from Amazon Prime’s Carnival Row. 3 new chapters help explain more background on Philo, Vignette and even Agreus. I hope this becomes a series of graphic novels as the Prime show will on,h be 1 more season.

*Special thanks to NetGalley and Legendary Comics for this e-arc.*

This is a perfect addition to the story if you have watched the Carnival Row series and are eagerly awaiting series 2. Some great tales with some back stories and the graphics are excellent and captivating. My only criticism is that I wanted more.

Thank you to netgalley and the publisher for providing me with this arc in exchange for an honest review.

I really loved the Carnival Row show, and I've always been sad it's been so long since we've gotten more of it. This comic is perfect for anyone wanting to go back into the lore and world.

I am new to this series and found it entirely intoxicating. The illustrations are outstanding. My only gripe would be at the placement. of the speech bubbles when the characters speak. It was a bit hard to follow, for me. I found the backstories of the characters so utterly fascinating. I am hooked!

This is a highly recommended read for those who love the genre of steampunk/fantasy.

Thanks to NetGalley and Legendary Comics for the e-copy, in exchange for this honest review.

I'm a fan of the Carnival Row show, and am thrilled to have read this graphic novel.

It took me a bit to get into the flow of the book. I found the placement of the speech bubbles to be odd, so I kept reading things in the wrong order. I also found that sometimes I really needed to examine the art in the panel before I read the words. In short, I re-read a lot of sections to try and make sense of the story.

All-in-all, this is very in keeping with the world presented in the TV show. It has the same gritty, oppressive feel that you see on the screen. I read this digitally, so I'm not sure if the print copy will be so dark, but I did feel that it was a bit too dark and some of the details were lost. I'm usually not a fan of art based on actor's faces, but the artists did a really good job here.

Overall, if you like Carnival Row, fantasy or steampunk, this is a good read. I will definitely be recommending it.

I am a fan of the show, so I was thrilled to see more media to consume while I wait for the 2nd season. This reads perfectly episodic, although I found the choice in the usage of “chapter”, as it felt more appropriate to describe it as a part.

I greatly enjoyed this and hope to add it to my personal library. I feel other fans of the show will be greatly pleased with this as well.

A beautifully drawn and plotted graphic novel that managed to inter splice strong thematic elements and keep up great entertainment value.

I do think it's necessary to have watched a little bit of the show to get proper enjoyment out of this book, but if you have a base knowledge it's a very fun read. It's fun that you get a few different art styles and 'versions' of the characters. It's also fun to get more backstory on the characters we know It's been long enough that I don't remember enough detail about the show to really analyze if there's anything deeper going on, but a generally enjoyable collection of short one offs.

The cover and description of this sounded great, as I love fairies, as well as the art style. Turns out this is based on a tv series, and can definitely not be read on its own. There is simply not enough information about anything in this book, and rather than an actual story, this comic has several short stories focusing on one person. These stories are usually a few pages and often it's a character telling another character about a third characters backstory.

If you already know these characters, this might be interesting, but if you don't you're probably kinda lost at first. Context clues definitely help, but none of these characters feel real, and I never got any sense of their personalities, which made them all rather forgettable.

The art is fine, but definitely not enough to save this comic.

Not a huge fan of the cursing but it is a dark and gritty comic. I like the detective feel of the story. I do like how each chapter has different timelines.

I admit I really enjoyed the tv show. But I am also pretty thoroughly predisposed to like a fantasy steampunk show! If you’re a fan of the show and are glad there’s going to be a second season then this is absolutely going to be a graphic novel for you. I would be pretty happy to see more comics published set in this world.

Wow! I really loved this graphic novel interpretation of the TV show. It's really not a novel, more a collection of short stories that illuminate various parts of the characters' backstories. The art is terrific and I thought this was a great read for fans of the show.

I adored the show and was excited to explore the world more. There were some interesting character insights and I enjoyed the read, but it didn't have quite the amount of detail to draw me in that I was hoping for. The world and the steam punk-like details was what made me fall for the show and this didn't really provide the same feel, although I did think the art in chapter 3 lived more up to my expectations. I still think it's worth a read for fans of the show who, like me, can't quite seem to put this world behind them.

Good story and great illustrations.This was a deeper dive into the Carnival Row universe with complex and interesting storylines.

I received a complimentary copy of this book through NetGalley. The opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.
